Great news on hearing about an interview already. That's really well done. You will have beat off lots of competition just to be shortlisted

Thank you DIA and SH

I was surprised to hear so quickly and did, mentally, start going over my CV, prior experience, while beginning to form questions and answers yesterday.

I've never done a VC interview and felt so self-conscious in VC meetings; I'm planning on sticking a bit of paper over my image so I don't see myself 😉 

TomBo was sent home as he's lost his voice and can't take calls 🙈

Another bit of me metaphorically died at work and my brain will begin to ooze out my ear if I'm not out soon. I packed all my personal belongings, which helped reaffirm to me I am going at some point.

We're having spag bol for tea.

Taking your stuff home is good. Hopefully this will work out for you the interview

Good luck with your interview 🤞 Hope Tombo is feeling better

Thanks SH and Skinty

Hope so as I will end up resigning soon. Such incompetence, creating work for the sake of it and I can't work like this.

I've been offered another interview, doing what I used to do. Trying to negotiate a more convenient time for it. Hopefully they'll agree as they are keen.

TomBo is still resting with nurse cat. I asked if he'll be looking for a new job but he said no as he likes this one and is just ill at the moment.

The firm have swapped the interview to meet my availability. I'll be doing back to back next week and if any other pop up I'll try to get them in the afternoon. 

I've a lot of reading and research to do for both roles, want to ensure I give my best in the interviews. These are the best I've applied for from all of them; I could be facing a big dilemma next week!

I'll have to set my laptop up tomorrow and pick my suit. The weekend I'll be dyeing my hair and brows. I'll have to decide what lipgloss and nail varnish to wear.

We had tomato soup for tea, I'm having strawberries for pudding.

Woohoo. Great you are getting interviews. All the best!

Good news on your speedy interviews.

MovingForwards

Thanks SH and DIA

I'm pleased they're beginning to roll in and I'll potentially have options. It will be good to have mental stimulation, loads of training and interesting things to learn, while getting stuck in to a role that will keep me on my toes and having personal development opportunities.

I've got the VC package on my laptop and been poking around 2nd interview website; 1st interview website I need to look at properly.

Keep everything crossed for me!
